Framework for reviving old software projects

We are now decades into ERP, Internet and Enterprise software. Multiple years into social media. So many sites, apps and softwares come and go. So many sites and apps are now in decline. There should be a framework & programming language just like we have Hibernate, Spring, Dot Net, Swift and others to revive old projects – enter database, configurations, code and it should revive a skeleton plus load/create data.

Old things still hold value !!

Railway safety

Some suggestions for railway safety:

  • Put threads of wire inside track while building along with insulated areas in track to hold the wire safely
  • Sensors at each joining fish plate attached to wire and WIFI / low energy Bluetooth or other devices
  • Extra ballast and heavy concrete for IED protection
  • Weld all fish plates, clamps and other things with shock absorbing joints for heat and train movement
  • At each track joint of fish plate put WIFI sensor which sends encrypted signal and tells if conductivity is right from wire in track to sense damage / sabotage
  • Red Blue shift based radio sets sensing distance with unique codes for each train which tell if trains on same track are coming towards each other mapped to WIFI sensors on track to avoid collision like TCAS of flights

Too many accidents – this could be a good start
